Volca Kick sync (launch) issue
Posted: Wed Jan 16, 2019 12:17 am
Firmware ver 1.02 (latest)
Has anybody else had a similar issue?
When running the Volca Kick as slave, with Octatrack or Ableton as master...
Triggering patterns on the Volca Kick, sometimes I get patterns that are triggered out of sync (or unquantised).
It's not so bad if it's a single pattern, but if I chain 2 patterns and trigger them, it's even more obvious the start points don't match up and they start galloping off beat.
the only way to guarantee that chained patterns trigger on beat is if I chain them before pressing play on the master device, can't seem to it on the fly which is frustrating.
This happens using MIDI but also when using a sync pulse. Have also swapped MIDI cables just to be sure.
Also am I right to say the "roll" effects like 1/4, 1/2, 1/1 etc are not triggered with quantisation?
Have tried going back to previous firmware 1.01 and also reloading current firmware 1.20 , both without success.
Thanks in advance!
